How Zee, Prst,r.J 81. Sermons

WRITER'S on humiotiCs advise your =
preachers Ia spend but little time in gem
eral study, and much In special prcparh-
tiOu Of sermons. Mr. Beecher reversed
this rule Most of his time was spent in
general study; his sunday morning ser
mon was prepared on Sunday morning,
and his Sunday evening sermon IN the
afternoon.
One SUNDAY evening he preached ser
men ON "A teNt from the eighth chapter ~
Romans. The congregation was eleCtrl-
fled. and Mr. Halliday. the preacher as
sistant. not knowing whether he was IN
the body or ont Oi it. sought Professor
Stowe. who was standing i'll his brother
in law pew.
The first half Of that sermon, said
the professor. is the most wonderful
thing | ever listened to; Out the thing
that Is the most wonderful To me Is how
he prepared IT. After dinner this noon !
was walking in the library, and when he
came up | said; Henry, would like to
have you preach from those words some
time to which he Immediately answered.
i may as well preach from them tonight
as any time lie Went to his afternoon
sleep. came down toward q o'clock. took IA
cup Of tea went into his study, and made
the preparation from which he preached
this sermon
Mr. Bcechcr undoubtedly possessed a
remarkable readiness in preparing for the
pulpit or the platform, hut he was also an
adept in aCCumulating material, Of which
ne could avail himself at a moment 5
notice.
In answering a question put to him 10y
the present writer rs 10 his method Of pre-
pairing for the pulpit, he said:
Il read n book for information and in
SpiratiOn. IT, while reading. Il thought
comes tn me which is worth expanding, |

passage which suggested the thought, the
hour of the day or the night, the local

mood.

manuscript. write the name of the topic

on that topic | hunt among my manu-
scripts, find the one want, and have a
sermon mt my hand which, with a little
alteration and addition. serves my pur-
pose.

There is n peculiarity about the pheas-
ants which probably does not apply to any
TO any other bird or animal on the globe;
and this is the fact that no hunter was
ever able, under any conceivable circum-
stances, to surprise one or get within gun
shot Of him without being observed. The
writer has tried the experiment frequent
ly, but never succeeded. The only way to
get near enough to "A pheasant TO shoot
him is to make all the noise possible. In
this way the bird can be approached as
nearly As desired, but the moment the
hunter stops the bird has flown with such
rapidj.y that it seems to have been fired
from howitzcr. Indeed, instances are
frequ' Mt where they have liowa with
such velocity as 10 dash themselves to
